Hostal El Bando — Hotel in Cartagena

Early flight from Cartagena? Stay here!

THis place is amazing if you have an early morning flight to catch or when you arrive in the middle of the night. It's a 1 minute walk away from the airport terminal an it's unbelievable that it is so quiet there, even with flights during the night I hardly heared them. The aircon is at a fixed temperature and it was completely fine. The swimmingpool was under construction while I was there (was mentioned on their page at booking, so I knew that), but the patio with the pool looks like a nice place to hangout. They let me store my heavy luggage there the day before I stayed with them, as I went off to Rosario Islands. Super kind and friendly, communication was fine too.

The only downside was that they didn't accept payment by card which was not mentioned on the page. To get some cash I went out and 4 our of 5 ATM's didn't work, so it was a bit of a hassle (In the airport terminal there are a lot of cashamchines, but you can't get in there if you don't have a flight that day, so be smart and if you stay here upon arrival, get your cash in the terminal) A little note for the people responding to reviews: you don't have to be mean when people give feedback about their experience. If they don't like your cold shower,...
